Dreams all across town are no longer private. People find themselves, without wishing it, drawn into the nighttime tales of others. They discover that Stark and Allison were trying to be in Kevin's dream (Kevin now has a special connection to the Artifact), but it interferes with a neurologist's neural network of 50 people, who the dreams originate from, and when the dreams occur, a compound builds up in the spinal cord. Three people fall unconscious because of it, and Carter and Jo are part of the neural network. Stark's dream-reading device is turned off and Carter, Jo, and the others are cured.
